Mr. Benson US History II Conflict/Resolution Seminar
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” –
Edmund Burke
1. What do these words mean to you? 2. Do you believe these words are true? 3. In all instances is it right to get involved in a conflict for something you believe is right/positive? 4. Can intervening in a situation on the side of good bring you harm? 5. Are there times where it is not worth the risk? How would you decide when you would/would not intervene when something you knew was wrong was being done? 6. Do you think our community, Camden, would be the same as it is today if more people got involved when they believed something wrong was happening? Do you think it is important for more people to speak up or take action when negative things occur in our City? 7. Do you believe that ONE person can make a difference? Do you believe that YOU can make a difference in problems within our community? 8. Should our country, the United States get involved in other country’s conflicts? Should we stop other countries from abusing their own people around the world? 9. Is it worth the risk that our country would face (possible war, more taxes, loss of American lives)?
